Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino saw his side win 4-0 at the weekend.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has insisted to Football London that he does not care about his side’s current injury worries.

Spurs have the likes of Davinson Sanchez, Giovani Lo Celso and Juan Foyth sidelined with injury problems, while Tanguy Ndombele and Kyle Walker-Peters are only just returning to full fitness.

Pochettino has already been faced with some selection dilemmas this term, as a result of being left so short of options on occasion.

But the Spurs boss insists that he doesn’t mind having to change his team due to injury, as he was going to rotate in the coming weeks anyway.

“I don’t care if there are injury worries because we are going to rotate anyway because we are after going to play Saturday and then in the Carabao Cup, many game,” he said.

“Of course be ready, because I’m going to rotate the squad and the team and try to be creative on Tuesday and ask me not always the same questions always about when some players are not in the squad or team or this player is playing and not another. Please, please.”

Pochettino has taken a rather defensive stance in the press this season, with the Spurs manager fairly regularly frustrated with some of the questions posed of him.

Tottenham’s injury problems certainly didn’t seem to have any negative affect on Pochettino’s team at the weekend.

Spurs cruised to victory over Crystal Palace on Saturday, with the Lilywhites scoring four times during the first half.

Tottenham have faced some heavy criticism this season, but they have now climbed up into third place in the Premier League table, which represents a solid start to the campaign.
